Image Enhancement Coaching    

 

 
How it Works


Coaching Programs and Policies

Specific skill building is the hallmark of the Darius coaching approach. Most programs are conducted one-on-one and customized to meet the needs of the individual. In some cases, customized coaching may be designed for small groups.

Communication/Image Goals and Objectives

Goals and objectives for programs are a combination of input from an HR professional and/or a manager, the coachee and the coach. Programs are based on recommendations for areas of development and needs for improvement.

How It Works

Prior to program design and engagement, an initial consultation with the coachee is conducted in-person or by phone at no charge. The purpose of the consultation is to finalize goals and determine the length and format of the program.

Depending on the type of program, the scope of work and availability of the client, programs are conducted in the following formats:

1. A series of one or two hour sessions (average 5 to 10 hours)
2. Three 3-hour sessions
3. Two 4-hour sessions
4. One or more full days

Following the initial consultation, a Letter of Agreement is drafted which states specific goals for improvement, the program format, location and fee.

Upon program completion, recommendations are made for further coaching if needed.

Location of Programs/Fees

Programs are usually conducted at Darius Communications offices, however they may be conducted at the client’s office. Fees for services at Darius Communications include videotaping, facilities, and any related equipment.
Time and travel fees may apply to sessions conducted on-site depending on location.

All sessions (excluding store or salon visits) are video or digitally taped for feedback during training and post-program review. Session content is considered confidential. Tapes/discs become the property of the coachee.

Follow-Up With Management

A phone conversation with the coachee’s manager regarding progress is provided at no charge, during the course of the program and upon completion, if requested.

It is not the policy of Darius Communications to provide written assessments of progress during or upon completion unless officially requested. Written reports are an additional charge.

Measurement of progress is usually observable within reasonable time. Programs are intensive and therefore generally yield visible results before program completion.
